@walter: have you seen the thumbnails? It's a pre-1970 Audi 60 |

Where were these scenes (also that with the Alfa Giulia, the Alfa Berlina 2000 and the Audi 60) filmed? This one is a RHD-car, the others are hard to identify. Looks like Africa. South Africa maybe (RHD and yellow plates) - otherwise aren't these four cars from the typical ZA-range. And I don't know, if it was common there, to drive around with a MG in the hand as here or on the load-space of a Pick Up (see the unkown Pick Up, too). |

Rhodesia/Zimbabwe also had yellow plates, and the civil war (1964-1979) was still going on. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodesian_Bush_War http://www.worldlicenseplates.com/world/AF_ZIMB.html -- Last edit: 2010-05-29 01:24:18 |

Renault 12 2nd gen. 1975+. |

South African registration plates were black until 1979/1980. This Renault 12 is the facelift model, with raised front bumper and larger rear light clusters. The facelift Renault 12 wasn't sold in South Africa as production ended there in 1975. My guess is that is a Rhodesian-spec model. |

Please set as "built in Zimbabwe". A list with cars built by Willowvale Motor Industries can be seen in the comments here: /vehicle_782802-Ford-Consul-Cortina-Estate-1964.html |

Noted that we might have to treat the Willowvale data carefully - eg Renault 12 can't be 1967-77 as 12 was not launched until Sept 69. But if this is a 77my 12 from visible evidence, so be it. |
